Hadith text
Narrated Al-Azraq bin Qais:We were in the city of Al-Ahwaz on the bank of a river which had dried up. Then Abu Barza Al- Aslami came riding a horse and he started praying and let his horse loose. The horse ran away, so Abu Barza interrupted his prayer and went after the horse till he caught it and brought it, and then he offered his prayer. There was a man amongst us who was (from the Khawari) having a different opinion. He came saying. "Look at this old man! He left his prayer because of a horse." On that Abu Barza came to us and said, "Since the time I left Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), nobody has admonished me; My house is very far from this place, and if I had carried on praying and left my horse, I could not have reached my house till night." Then Abu Barza mentioned that he had been in the company of the Prophet, and that he had seen his leniency
Al-Azraq bin Qais bataate hain: Hum Al-Ahwaz shehar mein ek sookhi nadi ke kinaare the. Phir Abu Barza Al-Aslami ghode par sawaar hokar aaye aur namaz padhne lage, apne ghode ko azaad chhod diya. Ghoda bhaag gaya, isliye Abu Barza ne apni namaz beech mein rok di aur ghode ke peechhe gaye, use pakda aur wapas laaye, phir apni namaz padhi. Humaare beech ek shaks tha (Khawarij mein se) jinki alag raay thi. Wo aakar kehne laga, 'Is budhe aadmi ko dekho! Isne ghode ki khaatir apni namaz chhod di.' Isper Abu Barza hamare paas aaye aur kaha, 'Jab se maine Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ko chhoda hai, kisi ne mujhe malaamat nahi ki; mera ghar yahaan se bahut door hai, aur agar main namaz jaari rakhta aur apna ghoda chhod deta, to main raat tak apne ghar nahi pahunch pata.' Phir Abu Barza ne bataya ke wo Nabi (SAW) ke saath rahe the, aur unhone unki narmi (aasaani-pasandi) dekhi thi.
